Choose the ImpactBoard edition that fits your work
ImpactBoard is a secure, configurable data management and reporting platform that helps organisations track strategy, performance and impact: from objectives and key results to programme outcomes, partner reporting and executive dashboards. It is offered in two editions: Nexus for social impact ecosystems, and Pulse for white-label performance and partner reporting platforms.
ImpactBoard Nexus
Nexus.
For social impact, M&E and programme reporting
ImpactBoard Nexus helps funders, NGOs, NPOs, foundations, evaluators and government partners implement monitoring and evaluation (M&E) frameworks, collect field data, track beneficiaries and activities, and report on outputs, outcomes and impact. Nexus is designed for multi-partner programmes where funders, implementers and programme teams need a shared, trusted view of progress.
As a multi-tenant platform, Nexus connects the whole ecosystem through shared data assets: a maintained institution hierarchy, verified masterlists, and ecosystem views across funders, implementers and programmes.
White-label platforms for organisations and ecosystems
ImpactBoard Pulse gives organisations a secure, configurable version of ImpactBoard under their own brand, domain and partner ecosystem. Launch a branded OKR tracking platform, reporting portal, supplier development platform, SME readiness platform, grantee reporting system or partner data hub, powered by ImpactBoard and configured to your logo, colours, workflows and reporting rules.
Pulse is ideal for organisations that need a secure white-label reporting platform for internal teams, partners, suppliers, grantees, SMEs or ecosystem stakeholders.

The Power of Data Visualisation
When data is visible, it's actionable.
Data visualisation turns numbers into meaning, revealing patterns, trends, and insights you can't spot in a spreadsheet. It helps you communicate clearly, make better decisions faster, and rally teams around the same goals.

ImpactBoard supports a range of teams and projects. From tracking early childhood development programmes to monitoring supplier development initiatives, we offer the flexibility to meet real-world reporting needs.
Track OKRs, KPIs and performance in one secure platform.
ImpactBoard Pulse helps organisations turn strategy, operations and partner reporting into clear, measurable dashboards. Track objectives, key results, KPIs, initiatives and performance data across teams, departments or partner networks, with a configurable platform that can be deployed under your own brand.
Business performance is often managed through scattered spreadsheets, static reports and dashboards that do not connect clearly to strategic goals. ImpactBoard Pulse helps teams create a shared view of performance, so leaders can see what is on track, what needs attention and where decisions are required.
Use Pulse to track strategic objectives, operational indicators, partner performance, reporting workflows and board-level dashboards, without forcing your organisation into a rigid off-the-shelf model.

Case study · ECD Registration Management Tool
ECD monitoring across South Africa.
The ECD Registration Management Tool (RMT) is a web-based application powered by ImpactBoard that enables social services professionals to track and monitor the registration of early childhood development services across the country.
The RMT was developed with the Nelson Mandela Foundation and the Department of Social Development to track ECD registration, identify where support was needed and visualise progress at national, provincial and district level. It was configured in web and mobile formats to support registration data collection by roughly 20 000 ECD practitioners.
Each participating government institution and NGO accessed an organisational portal to track and monitor its own work. Indicators were consolidated from organisational level to district, provincial and national views, creating a shared picture of implementation progress across the ecosystem.
What the tool does
Maintains a live database of registered and unregistered ECD services for reference and updates.
Tracks each ECD service along every stage of the registration process.
Digitises the registration framework for service assessments and compliance determination.
Surfaces outstanding assessments, certificates received and registration outcomes on dashboards.
Rolls organisational data up to district, provincial and national views.
